FY12 Corporate Financial Plan Proposal The Finance Committee recommends the NEC endorse the FY12 Corporate Financial Plan as presented and forward to the Board of Governors for approval.
FY11 & FY12 Unfunded Proposal The Finance Committee recommends the NEC review in full session the possible modification to the Cadet Accident insurance program and the unfunded nature of that program and make a determination of how to move forward on this issue.
Cadet Uniforms • Costs allocated to the Cooperative Agreement must be reasonable, allowable, and allocable • Cadet uniforms are allowable per the Statement of Work and expenses may be allocated to appropriated funds • Analysis of cadet uniforms in relation to retention brings into question the reasonableness of the cost
Cadet Uniforms • CAP has expended in excess of $2M on cadet uniforms since 2006 UniformsCost FY09 6,824 $409,723 FY10 6,767 $449,291 • Approximately 50% of cadets do not renew their membership after the first year
Cadet Uniforms • CAP should consider appointing a committee to review the cadet uniform policy • Further, CAP’s annual appropriation may be seriously reduced due to Congressional budget restraints • Potential savings would be used to maintain other program elements
Cadet Uniforms Proposal The Finance Committee recommends to the NEC that a special uniform committee be appointed to review the cadet uniform policy.
Vanguard Training Center Funds • Vanguard Funds balance is currently $101,914 • FY11 Vanguard commissions are estimated to be approximately $130k • FY10 expenditures: NESA $67,642 Hawk Mt $17,500 Oshkosh $ 9,678 Vehicle Wrap $ 2,666
Vanguard Training Center Funds • Hawk Mountain has requested funds to remodel the kitchen at the facility • Kitchen is inadequate to support to support the activities • Hawk Mountain manages an ongoing fund raising campaign to enhance the facility • All buildings have volunteer “sweat equity” contributions to defer costs
Vanguard Training Center Funds • HMRSrequires an electrical service upgrade to complete the building project • CAP members can not perform electrical upgrade • Hawk Mountain has raised over $14,500 in funding and supplies for this project in the past year
Vanguard Training Center Funds • Hawk Mountain is one of the only facilities owned by Civil Air Patrol • Vanguard Training Center funds would enhance the experience of cadets who attend Hawk Mountain
Vanguard Training Center FundsProposal The Finance Committee recommends Hawk Mountain receive Vanguard Region Training Center funds in the amount of $75,000 for the purpose of kitchen and dining facilities upgrade.
Restricted Remaining CD Funds • Under the Counter Drug program prior to FY05 CAP Wings were paid 15% of the mission cost • Several Wings have remaining accumulated “CD Admin Fees” • Funds are restricted to use within the CD program • Admin fee payments eliminated after FY04 NC $6,759 KY $3,128 WA $4,482
Restricted CD FundsProposal Finance Committee recommends to the NEC that the remaining CD balances, as reported, be drafted back by NHQ to be utilized as CD mission funding by those units who have accumulated the funds.
ACMX Balances Wings bought into CMX program which currently have tail number balances remaining, but limited resources to remit reimbursement: Arkansas $44,146 Hawaii $10,876 Washington $11,211 Total $66,233
AR Wing ACMX Balance Proposal • AR Wing will pay $100 monthly from dues rebates • Flying rate for corp missions will be increased by $5 per hour • AR Wing and NHQ will meet annually to review plan to determine if a modification to the plan is feasible
A/C Maintenance BalanceProposal • NCR will be refunded the amount paid for IA • Approve 50% write off of all amounts outstanding and/or currently being paid; all remaining balances would require a payment plan.
Overpayment of Member Dues • Member dues are frequently overpaid by small amounts • CAP has been refunding overpayments by issuing checks • Overpayments are generally less than $15 • Many refund checks issued are not cashed • Most organizations noted at the Personify user conference that they record overpayments as contributions due to cost (time, postage) of refunding
Member DuesProposal The Finance Committee recommends to the NEC that dues payments that exceed the proper dues amount by less than $15 be recorded as contributions and that members be notified of the policy.
NHQ-funded Internet Service for Units • NHQ provides access to dialup internet service via EarthLink • Where EarthLink access is not available reimbursement up to $15.95 toward the cost of internet service is offered. Total expenditure in FY11 was just over $38k • Dial-up service almost inadequate for eServices and WMIRS • Initially over 1,000 accounts - today fewer than 200 units (<15%) participate • Workload to process receipts and reimbursement payments for NHQ and wing administrator staffs is considerable and exceeds value of reimbursement • Requirement is not established in any Air Force, CAP or board-approved policy
Internet ServiceProposal The Finance Committee recommends to the NEC cancellation of the Internet service reimbursement program, effective 1 Oct 11 and application of funds to be directed to training or other programs.
Document Scanning • Ten Wings have implemented procedures to scan all documents into QuickBooks utilizing a utility called SmartVault • Wings which have implemented SmartVault vary in size • All Wings now have scanners • Scanning financial documents supports National Board proposal to adopt paperless processes • Allows auditors, WFA’s and Finance Committee to review documents
Document ScanningProposal The Finance Committee recommends to the NEC that all Wings implement SmartVault by 1 September 2011.
FY11 Missions / Exercises • Executed 100% of our budget for the last four years - never received funding this late before • Most wings now have plans in place to execute budgets • Must now fly 60+% of budget in the last 3rd of the year • By 1 August, Regions/Wings need to identify funding for training and orientation flights that will not be executed by 14 September
FY11 Missions / ExercisesProposal • The Finance Committee recommends that the NEC authorizes NHQ an early recovery of unobligated funds for FY-11in WMIRS on or after 1 August 2011.
Online Banking • Wings have begun to utilize online banking for bill payments • Online bill pay • EFT/ACH Payments • Process saves time and is more efficient • CAPR 173-1 lacks guidance to ensure internal controls are in place
Online Banking The outcome from the FM Summit will develop guidance to include in CAPR173-1 to provide for procedures and internal controls for online banking.

Travel Vouchers/M&E Expenses • IRS requires documentation to support travel expense and meals and entertainment • WFA and auditor review has indicated most travel is not being fully documented • Lack of consolidated travel voucher is especially common if the individual holds a credit card • Entertainment expenses are also not being documented
Travel Vouchers/M&E Expenses • FM Summit will develop in language to include in CAPR173-1 to provide clarification of the documentation required to ensure compliance with IRS requirements.
